Ok This has been bugging me for a while and it seems to have gone un talked about. But what was with Vinny taking the final downs of the Pats Jets game. It seems to me that It was a final slap in the Face by Belichick to Mangini. We all know that they almost were forced to hug each other by all the media attention on the first two handshakes. I think that it was all bullshit for the cameras and that Bilichick is still the same asshole he always was.

I had already left the room by that point .. so I missed it .. but as I said before .. as long as hes in that uni .. hes dead to me

as for the action ... I HATE to defend anything dickhead does .. but if Im up by 21 and have to play the next round of playoffs in 7 days ... I dont put brady out there in front of a pissed of Jets team

vinny is a football professional! who cares what team hes on, unless its miami or oakland(then id be repulsed) but someone whos been playing for as long as vinny is bound to get in any playoff game just so he can get some snaps. im not bothered at all, and if belichick meant it to be an insult, well hes running out of shit to do.

What? You hate Oakland more than New England? Maybe it's just me, but I have more disdain and hatred for everyone associated with the New England Patriots than any other team in sports (other than the Red Sox, but that's another discussion).

I talked about this on the Jet Fuel Post Game Show. It was a deliberate slap in the face by Belichump! No doubt about it.

They threw Vinny a bone is all. No harm, no foul; the harm was on the scoreboard...

My feelings exactly.

If Belicheck did this to hurt the Jets it made little sense. Vinny fizzled out as the Jets QB before Mangini ever got here, so I don't see how putting in a QB who never played for Mangini shows him up at all.

If Belicheck was out to hurt Jets fans, it didn't work. Vinny gave the Jets his best years ever, and gave the Jets some of their most exciting seasons and games, but it was clear he was no longer doing it when Chad replaced him. Then Vinny rejoined Bill Parcells in Dallas and didn't get it done there either. Then Vinny got called into emergency duty replacing Chad last year and didn't move the team either.

Jets fans love Vinny, but we also know he's been done for years. If Vinny can keep it going as a backup on various clubs, I say more power to him. Fact is, I regard Vinny's appearance in a game that had been over for awhile as a chance to wish an old friend well than any kind of insult.

Now, if Brady got hurt when the score was tied and Vinny led the Patriots to victory over the Jets, that would be a slap in the face. But the way it was done, it didn't hurt. The defeat hurt, the score hurt, but not seeing Vinny at the end of a foregone conclusion.

Does that mean that when Vinny was pumping his fists in the air when the Pats scored late, that didn't bother you?

Sometimes I feel Like the Pats and Jets are like the Hatfields and the McCoys. They are so pissed at each other but nobody can remember why and There is so much inbreading and side crossing you can't tell who is on who's side except when they are shooting at each other.

Thank you! it was a slap in the face and a kick in the nuts. Belichick hates us and I mean HE HATE'S US!. He did it delibrately to rattle the fans and the media. You're damn right. It was intentional to piss us off.

If any of you can't see that you're blind. I can't put it into words how insulted I felt and how much of a prick he was and is for doing that. I want to tear that team apart next year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Come on Jets fan. If you bleed green and white that hit home. Stop being dilusional as if it's all good. It's not all good. It was a slap to Mangini because usually when the H.C pulls his Q.B it's either because of injury OR it's a blowout. So one was to piss us off Mangini and the other was to piss us off.

I got a question for you dilusional Jet fans. Cassel is there #2 Q.B. When the Pats were in control of their previous game they subplanted Cassel for Brady after the Pats ran up the score. My Question is!

Number 2 Q.B's go in to run the clock in blowout's not number 3's so someone tell me why Vinny was in because he was the number 3 Q.B?

FORGET IT! I'll tell you why. Beli would have had Cassel in against anyother team but considering were the Jets and they want to kick us in the teeth!!!!!!!!

I'm in total agreement with what s-dubb and all the rest of you are stating,eventhough we are talking about our beloved Vinny,again I'm in total agreementWe will wait until next year and we will even the scoreremember our fight with Dan Marino in the mud bowlwe answered that question as we will answer this latest battle

the game was over with 4:54 left to go why was chad in there?Vinny would come in if Brady went down pinning thier last hope and the #2 QB.If bill did this as some of you guys suggest it will come back on Bill 7 fold.

WAKE UP JET FAN'S!!!!!!!!

I am awake.

Who cares? It didn't bother me, I don't look that far into it. They lost, I doubt the Jets players were thinking about Vinny being in the game, I doubt it bothered them.
